Front of t-shirt design

 once again started with a blank shirt but this time the front.

i chose to use the same character on the back for the front but in a different way but still looking rather dark and ominous.
i looked around on the internet for poses but rather than use one from what i had seen i created my own and ended up with the one i drew.

i decided to draw lines over one side of the face and the eye to make the character look more evil and almost possesed.

after drawing out the character i put down the wording which i felt sounded really dark and tried to do it in a way that made it look sinester.

after this i added the colour on a seperat layer again under the line work layer and went a bit further out the lines making it look a messy again and that i was once again sprayed through a stencil and then went around it with the dark blood red.

i feel that it came out well but could have come out better had i spent more time on the design.

back of t-shirt design

 We were given a blank t-shirt to design how we wanted providing that we used things that we had already learned from the typograpghy we learned and also from our visit to astar park.

i decided to go with the graffiti sort of design using a character i could draw out/ sketch and then put wording with it.

To start with i drew out a random character in a simple sketchy way do give the effect that it looked sort  of like a stencile and then put the wording in above it in a funky sinester way that make it look a bit dark and dramatic.

after this i put a new layer in and moved it so that anything i did went under the character and i started putting the colour in and only going slightly out of the lines to make it look like it was sprayed and then the lines were put over it, i then put red under the wording to look a bit more evil and ended with this as the final result for the back of the shirt.

overall i like the design because its simple but looks like it took alot of time to do and i generally enjoyed doing it. even though the character i used is a anime character, anime is something i enjoy drawing and find easy to do so was able to finnish this up rather quickly.
